Manitowoc Ice Machines Recognized by EPA

Friday, March 19th, 2010

Manitowoc ice machines are highly regarded in the industry for being reliable, efficient and just generally outstanding. So it should come as no surprise to hear that Manitowoc was recently recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a 2010 Energy Star Partner of the Year.

A joint program of the EPA and the U.S. Department of Energy, Energy Star was started in 1992 is used all over the world to standardize energy-efficient consumer products, from refrigerators to televisions. Energy Star aims to help people “save money and protect the environment through energy efficient products and practices,” according to their website. In fact, Americans saved enough energy in just 2009, according to Energy Star, to avoid greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to emissions from 30 million cars. Additionally, they saved almost $17 million on utility bills. There are huge advantages to buying Energy Star-rated products.

Manitowoc ice machines are efficient and environmentally-friendly. The EPA’s naming of Manitowoc as a 2010 Energy Star Partner of the Year recognizes that the manufacturer makes outstanding contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and helps educate consumers about energy-efficient products.

In response to the EPA’s recognition, Manitowoc president Mike Kachmer said, “We’re not just selling an ice machine or fryer; we’re going beyond to address customer needs such as energy conservation, operating efficiency, and culinary R&D. It is an honor to have our on-going efforts recognized by the EPA.”

Ice Machines: A Restaurant Necessity

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

Whether you’re running a bar, diner, coffee shop or restaurant, ice machines are must-have restaurant equipment. There’s no better way to efficiently produce a large amount of ice cubes in an affordable way. Buying bags of ice is expensive, and an employee must be tasked with going out and getting more every time the supply is low. And if the supply runs out, that can mean unhappy customers — especially in the summer when ice-cold drinks are in high demand.

For bars, serving up a scotch on the rocks without the “rocks” is impossible without ice. And thirsty restaurant customers won’t have their thirst quenched with a non-iced tea or lukewarm water. A room-temperature fountain drink? No thanks. Be prepared for high-traffic times so you can alleviate the worry of running out of ice: Get a quality, reliable ice machine.

Manitowoc Ice Machines

Manitowoc ice machines are a popular choice for restaurant and bar owners, and they have a great reputation thanks to their outstanding quality and efficiency.

This undercounter ice machine produces 90 to 130 pounds of full-size, dice-style ice cubes per 24-hour period and features adjustable legs so it can be lowered or raise to fit into different work spaces. This is just one of the many Manitowoc ice machines in our inventory.

New Modular Restaurant Cuts Operating, Equipment Costs

Thursday, April 9th, 2009

In this rough economy, restaurants are looking for ways to cut costs, whether it be operating, restaurant equipment or other costs. One company has successfully come up with a way to do this: Church’s Chicken unveiled their latest store prototype — a modular restaurant concept — on April 1, 2009 in Lawrenceville, Georgia. We learned about this in a great recent article in Restaurants and Industry Magazine.

The modular restaurant, according to officials at Church’s Chicken, will cut new-store costs by as much as 30 percent. What’s even more impressive is that it takes just three days for the modular restaurant to be completely finished and ready for customers.

The RI Magazine article noted that the mayor of Lawrenceville, Rex A. Millsaps, proclaimed the day the modular restaurant was unveiled Start Up a Franchise, Start Up the Economy Day. And that’s only fitting, seeing as how the modular restaurant makes it very easy and affordable for people to own and operate a Church’s franchise. Development, insurance premiums and restaurant equipment costs are all cut — and value, safety and quality are not at all compromised.

Franchised businesses are very important to the economy, as they create and employ over 3,153,207 people according to the article. It can be very difficult to get a bank loan today, so keeping costs down helps quite a bit. Some specific ways the new modular restaurant saves on operating costs: low insurance premiums thanks to the building’s steel infrastructure, lower taxes because the steel infrastructure allows the restaurant to depreciate like equipment and installing re-manufactured restaurant equipment. The building is also energy efficient.

Cutting Restaurant Equipment Costs

We at ShortOrder understand how much it takes to open and operate a restaurant. That’s why we offer a Low Price Guarantee on Restaurant Equipment. This gives you the assurance that you’re getting the lowest price out there. We also offer a selection of Scratch and Dent Restaurant Equipment.
